Mass for St Hilary in the Dominican Rite, Oxford: 14th Jan

Blackfriars, aka the Priory of the Holy Spirit, is in St Giles in the centre of Oxford, postcode OX1 3LY: click for a map.

The Schola Abelis will be learning to sing the Dominican chants for the feast, which are slightly different from those in the Roman books. The Dominicans want to celebrate this as a High Mass, with deacon and subdeacon, so it will be a splendid Mass. If you can make it, please come along to honour the great St Hilary, who has given his name to Oxford's spring term, the term which starts on the very next day.
